HC Deb 25 July 1967 vol 751 c78W
52. Mr. Bishop

asked the Minister of Housing and Local Government what representations he has made to planning authorities regarding the control and siting of slaughterhouses; and whether he will take steps to ensure the provision of more public slaughterhouses centrally situated and a reduction in the number of private premises especially in villages, in order to maintain standards and to avoid disturbances to residents of smaller communities.
